Myths and Legends of China

by Edward T.C. Werner

[1922]

This is the Chinese volume in the always reliable
Myths and Legends series, e.g. Babylonia, British, and Celtic.
The author consulted mostly Chinese sources to splice together
this broad look at Chinese traditional folklore, related to all
three of the main Chinese religions, Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism.
Werner covers such topics as the evolution of Chinese cosmology,
and the enormous pantheon of native Chinese Gods, Goddesses, and Immortals.
This makes a great read for folklore fans and lovers of Chinese lore.
